Innovations in Endodontics: Forest Lake Endodontics Study Program

Endodontics is a constantly evolving field of dentistry. As endodontists learn more about saving teeth, patients can experience improved treatment outcomes that increase the chances of preserving their natural teeth. The key to improving the patient experience is for endodontists to keep up to date with advancements in the field. What is the best way to do this? 

Small group studies provide opportunities for dentists and dental specialists to learn from other like-minded doctors. In a group setting with open discussion, endodontists can gain vital information from other experts in the field and apply it directly to patient care. 

The doctors at Forest Lake Endodontics have participated in a small group study club for the past 5 years and will continue going forward. Any interested dentists and endodontists are invited to join the group. Contact sidonie@forest-endo.com for more information.
